It was definitely a fault. The seller has grudgingly taken it back and had it repaired
I paid over the odds for it and didn't want to have a repaired amp at the price I paid. Fickle I know but there are others out there.

Trouble is I cant find one in the UK thats a suitable length, metal and has an angled jack at one end
They must be available somewhere but it is driving me nuts

Hi
Does anyone know where I could pickup a replacement footswitch cable for a Stiletto Ace - preferably in the UK but anywhere will do if they ship.
I know its only a balanced 1/4 cable with an angled jack at one end but I cant seem to find one anywhere
Many thanks
Howard
I have changed all the tubes and tried it at another location and still no joy.
The hum is the kind you sometimes get when you touch the end of a guitar cable when it is plugged into the amp - not quite that loud though but almost
It looks as though the seller is going to be okay about though...
I did consider that - I have tried it all over the house.
Both my Ace and Express dont hum so is that likely? I can always take it to the office to test it there.
Just to add to this
I have noticed that the front of the amp where the dials are gets very hot - so hot that I cant keep my finger on it for long
This is only playing at bedroom volume

Hi
I have just purchased a Lonestar Classic from ebay. The amp has a very load and pronounced hum. It hums like this without any instrument plugged in and regardless of how any of the switches or dials are set.
Is this normal - I have an express 5:50 and a Stiletto Ace and neither hum like...
eek - if I understood half of that I would be on a winner!!! I am afraid making one is well beyond my rather meagre electrical abilities.
If I manage to find a female/male mono extension adapter does it specifically need to say it is for speakers?
I am sure I have seen one of those at Maplins...
Does anyone know where I can get an cable that extends the speaker cable on a Stiletto Ace - preferably in the UK
I have just bought the hotplate but the cable than runs from the speaker on the Ace is too short to reach the hotplate on top of the amp.
I have spent ages trolling the net in vain...
many thanks for the advice.
I have emailed the supplier and will wait to hear from them - that sounds like the safest plan.
I dont get chance to crank the amp except at rehearsals/gigs and the band is having a bit of a hiatus at the moment.
Cheers

I have already received them and tried them. I dont have any way to do any sort of testing.
I have tried them in the amp and they sound good but I haven't run them very long or very loud.
I suppose I better take them out and ordered some with the correct bias.

Hi
I have been lurking here for a while and decided to try 2 KT77's in my Stiletto Ace.
In my enthusiasm I ordered them without specifying they were for a Mesa Boogie. Is this going to cause a bias problem?
So, have a made a cock-up and ordered the wrong tubes?
It is not a big deal as they...
